70.3 Philippines Swin Death
Quote | Reply
I am surprised that I haven't seen this come up on SlowTwitch this week. I have work colleagues from Singapore that went to the Philippines to do this race that were not able to complete the swim. From what they told me, there were some early morning problems that caused the race to start later than expected and by the time certain AGs got into the water the current had changed. Very sad.

"There are various reasons for that. Maybe because of the heat, maybe because people didn't train very well, we don’t know. It's a lot of things. But we had a lot of people who finished also,” she said.

... Knowing the Filipino social community. Definitely under training. I love their communities not support but I see their workouts which are minimal and more focused on if there is enough Olympia. They sign up for long distance race when they struggle to finish a 5k. Easy to become and elite for that country too
